The AI Engine

I'm loving the concept of Regular Expressions, but it doesn't seem like any of them are working. This being the most frequent example:

rouge: what
Westerlin Man: *Sigh*...man, I've got to get out of this dorm room.

(an xnone response there)
My keyphrase is formatted exactly like it's set up in the Book of AI:

^what$ (re)

and I've also pumped up its rank. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

djfroggy- I have that exact phrase too, and I just tested mine in debug and it's working fine. I'd try debug and see if you can spot anything odd there.

I just ran it through. I said simply to him "what?" Now, while I still don't know what a lot of that output means, I did notice that it found the '^what$ (re)' keyphrase, and it said a little bit further on, "considered BLAB (1)", and it then spit out an xnone.

I've got bot holidays turned off--yet Frizella is talking like the Hulk...to a human! I thought that non-observant bots only participated when talking to another bot with holidays turned on. No?

And djfroggy...she's sorry for being so mean to you!

No problem Dally...I'll just chalk it up to her uncontrolable Hulk-rage.

I think this happens when the human has holidays turned on.

I just cased the Book of AI and didn't see it anywhere, but is there any way to have your bot say the time?

eh have a different responses at different times

I know how to do that. I was asking if there was a way to actually state the time.

i don't know

djfroggy: time used to be a built in function along with speech, so yeah you used to be able to ask a bot what time it is and it would give the exact time, now i think you use aiscript (good luck )

djfroggy-

It's not in the book, but you can use the pluggin (time) for the time. Remember, that's the time locally for the bots (Virginia, I think), not your local time. The pluggin (date) will also give the date in the form of "27th".
